Chương 59: Unreachable mind (Julia)

Using hypnosis tired me out of all my energy, so I convince Leo to go straight home.

Luckily, he arrived after Susan left, so he didn't see me talking with her. He would have understood that she's the one behind the attack.

And he might have realised that something is quite wrong with me.

After lying to him for so long, I've almost started feeling normal, human. But I still need to be careful.

He didn't inquire too much about my mood, and he comforted me about the lost job.

He also said I'm smart.

I'm relieved to have finished this terrible story, so I can rest and think of the next move. I don't need to worry about Susan anymore.

Leo's calm smile is a bit suspicious, but I don't want to question his motives right now. I'm too tired to play along, too, so he'll have to postpone any wicked thought he's having for another time.

«The council will meet to discuss what happened,» he informs me.
